Brisbane’s much-loved $2 Summer Dips program is back for another year, giving residents even more ways to enjoy long, hot days in Australia’s lifestyle capital.
From 1 December 2025 to 28 February 2026, entry to Council’s 22 pools across the suburbs will again be just $2.
This popular program makes it easier than ever for families to stay active, stay cool and still stay on budget.
Now in its third year, the popular initiative has already saved Brisbane families around $5 million, with more than 1.4 million residents taking advantage of the program to date.
A family of four could save more than $16 on every visit through the $2 Summer Dips program.
From splash pads and shaded play areas to lap lanes and leisure pools, there is something for everyone.
Suburbs right across Brisbane continue to show strong support for the program, with Sandgate Pool and Newmarket Pool among the most visited facilities last summer.
From the outdoor water play park at Colmslie Aquatic Centre to Bellbowrie Pool’s water play pad and drop bucket, there are endless ways to enjoy Brisbane’s fantastic outdoor lifestyle.
The Schrinner Council has also upgraded 21 centres with new solar, batteries, LED lighting and heat pumps to make pools more sustainable and keep costs down.
